What really happens in the split second when a free-kick curls past the wall, or a reverse swing bamboozles a batter's instinct? The answers are in forces, angles, and momentum — the physics 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗮𝗴𝗮 𝟮.𝟬 explored in its first session, 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀, hosted by the 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝘂𝗯.

We are sharing the complete session notes, prepared by 𝗠𝗱. 𝗡𝗮𝗷𝗶𝗯 𝗠𝗮𝗵𝗺𝘂𝗱, Library Secretary, NDSC, covering the physics behind cricket swing and the football free kick in detail.

Every discipline has its own form of poetry and on Wednesday sport proved that its verses are written in physics. 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝘂𝗯 has started a new chapter 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗮𝗴𝗮 𝟮.𝟬 with its first session 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀.

Every curling free-kick that bends past the wall, every conventional swing that hoops in through the air, every reverse swing that defies a batter's instinct has a story of forces, angles and momentum behind it. We used the session to unpick that story – realised that champions are made not just on the pitch, but in the equations behind.

The session was conducted by 𝗠𝗱. 𝗡𝗮𝗷𝗶𝗯 𝗠𝗮𝗵𝗺𝘂𝗱, Library Secretary, NDSC who offered a compelling perspective on how the principles of physics quietly shape the making of a champion.

A glimpse of the session is captured in the photographs below.

Science doesn't stop surprising us — and neither do we. On Wednesday, we'll step onto the field where physics meets play and motion reveals the making of a champion. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀 marks the opening session of our brand-new chapter 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗮𝗴𝗮 𝟮.𝟬, organized by 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝘂𝗯.
Ever wondered what really powers that perfect football kick, a flawless cricket shot, or a soaring basketball dunk? It's not just talent — it's physics! Join us as we uncover the hidden science that turns athletes into champions.

"What if a fish rewired itself to become a living power plant?

𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗲𝗲𝗹 (𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘂𝘀 𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘂𝘀) Deep in the murky rivers of the Amazon, the 𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗲𝗲𝗹 can release a jolt of about 𝟴𝟲𝟬 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘁𝘀 in one shot — powerful enough to stun a horse. Nearly 𝟴𝟬 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁 of its body is taken up by specialized electric organs, packed with thousands of tiny cells called 𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗰𝘆𝘁𝗲𝘀, which fire in perfect synchrony, like batteries wired in series.
Scientists have taken notice — building 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗰𝘆𝘁𝗲 𝗵𝘆𝗱𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗲𝗹𝘀 that mimic this very mechanism to generate clean electricity from little more than saltwater and gel.
This Sunday, we look at how this bio-electric blueprint could inspire 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗶𝗱𝘀 and a nature-made answer to 𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴.

What does a single sheet of carbon do to materials science?
In 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟒, physicists 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐞 𝐆𝐞𝐢𝐦 and 𝐊𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐯 were able to isolate 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐞, a honeycomb-structured carbon lattice that is just one atom thick, and heralded the first real two-dimensional material. They shared the 𝐍𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐏𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐬 in 2010.
Graphene has roughly 𝟐𝟎𝟎 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐥, better conductivity than copper, and is nearly transparent — yet it allows very little to pass thru it. Scientists are calling it the closest thing to a “𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥" ever found.
This Sunday we’ll look at the rise of Graphene and the challenges still standing in its way.For further information, read the full piece here:

-𝗦𝗶𝗿 𝗔𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗙𝗹𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴.

At a time when common bacteria often caused deadly diseases, 𝗔𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗙𝗹𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 proved to be able to be aware of things that others would not be aware of. In 1928, a Petri dish in his lab was accidentally contaminated. This wasn’t just a mistake; it led to the discovery of 𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻, the first true antibiotic, an invention that changed the course of modern medicine forever. For great scientific discoveries do not necessarily depend upon meticulous planning; they depend upon a keen and alert mind to see an opportunity. This time, the 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗿𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗹𝘂𝗯 is celebrating the birthday of the amazing mind that was curious enough to save millions of lives all over the world through precise observations.

We're thrilled to continue our journey with the fourth article from 𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐌 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭, titled "𝐃𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐦 𝛑 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐦".

Long before an equation is fully solved, its units already whisper the shape of the answer. This article explores how 𝐃𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬 and the 𝐁𝐮𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐦 𝛑 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐦 let physicists predict how quantities relate — from a swinging pendulum to drag on a sphere — using nothing but the dimensions involved.

What happens to information when it falls into a 𝐛𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞?
This question is at the core of one of the longest-standing unsolved puzzles in physics. 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 says that anything that crosses a black hole’s 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐨𝐧 is forever cut off from the universe. 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐦 𝐦𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐬, however, insists that information can never be destroyed, only rendered incomprehensible.
In 1974, 𝐇𝐚𝐰𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 proved that black holes slowly 𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 through radiation – but that 𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 seemed to contain no sign of the matter that fell in, leading to the question of whether that information is lost forever.
This Sunday, we'll be exploring this paradox in detail. For further information, read the full piece here: [https://ndscbd.net/activities/the-blackhole-information-paradox--1785573477177]

We are thrilled to continue our journey with the third article from STEM Insight, titled "𝐅𝐥𝐮𝐢𝐝 𝐌𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐤𝐞'𝐬 𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧".

Why do rivers flow? Why do they sometimes create mesmerizing whirlpools? Every fluid particle has its own velocity and acceleration—but how can scientists predict the motion of an entire river? The answer lies in the 𝐍𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐫–𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐄𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, one of the greatest achievements in fluid mechanics. Remarkably, one of the biggest unsolved questions about these equations carries a $𝟏 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞. Dive into the article to explore the mathematics behind rivers, bridges, dams, and modern engineering.

𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐳𝐚 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐞?
Will this mutable virus be resisted by one single vaccine? Influenza virus mainly attacks the 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 tract. In every season this RNA virus is mutated. So, the vaccine of the virus is possibly impossible.
But every virus has certain characteristics, that's why what if we research the specific region and find out the possible vaccine?
This Sunday, we will explore the 𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐧𝐳𝐚 vaccine and how it works.
